Whether you're planning a birthday or a hen do, you'll find plenty of ideas for your celebration on our Party forum.

So would you be happy if I only served these drinks at a party:

fizz - prosecco
rose wine
beer

????

I will have soft drinks too of course, but should I also get some red wine and white wine and would you expect cocktails????

It's a summer birthday party for about 40 people.

I wouldn't expect cocktails (although Pimms might be nice) but probably you should get some red/white too...

I wouldn't worry about cocktails but I would at least get white wine.

I always steer people towards a certain drink when they arrive and then find they tend to stick to it so I think 3 is fine.

Maybe have some red or white as back up - although in this weather I don't think people will go for red

Pimms is always a great back up!

I will be having help to serve the drinks so Pimms might be a nice idea, I know some people don't like fizz (me, I can drink it all night )

When you say Beer do you mean Lager or Bitter? Some people find Lager too gassy.

Have just been the "bar staff" at a work summer BBQ. Wine was bearly touched, however they cleared us of the Bulmers (pear and normal). Cider seems to be the drink of the summer. Forget the Pimms, fizzy stuff will be easier to serve and the people serving it will be more grateful to you for it

I think you need white wine as well as rose, I am a wine lover but really not a fan of rose. Unless it happens to be a Sancerre rose.

Agree that having cider as well as a selection of beers is probably a good call too.

Pimms!
I could drink that all day

bumpybecky · 27/06/2010 10:00

well I don't drink any of those (can't do bubbly wine, hate beer rose too sweet normally)

Pimms and lemonade is very yummy and so summery

I wouldn't expect cocktails and as long as there were soft drinks I liked that would be ok

Sounds fine to me.

I wouldn't say no to a G&T, though.
